DCV - Delta Cable Vision

Hey Folks DCV is Delta Cable Vision. Looks like they are authorised by Multivision. Looks like they provide Multivision Channels (all the Channels are not advertised on the board and some local channels). Hopefully Customers can shed more light for us about their service, etc.

Here i would like to say something about the cabletv in srilanka.The most and cheapest way to access channels are through cable tv.In srilanka only few people are providing cable tv now.Out of that you are getting all international and national channels.And the expenses are very cheap by comparing with other DTH packages.In srilanka the catv providers are DELTAA,LBN,and some local providers like city cables...out of them LBN's cost is same as DTH.At the same time delta cables giving 50 channels with the cost of 400RS per month! and activation charge as 3000RS.And the most funny things from the Govt is they gave permission for cable tv to selected peoples.If they give liscense to everybody,all srilankans can watch all international channels with very low cost and they can finish it up the monopoly of this DTH'S.

I have to agree & disagree with what is said above. There is no monopoly in Sri Lanka for DTH. The monopoly scenario has come about due to the fact that the government has not issued licenses to cable tv operators. Certain areas like Ja Ela & Kandana and some areas in Colombo do not have Cable TV yet.

DTH is good for a country because once these Cable TV operators come into operation there is only a single Cable TV company per area and there is no competition among cable tv operators causing them not to provide exactly what the viewer wants. So when a DTH operator is around there is always a choice whether to stick to the Cable goon in your area and if you are not satisfied you can always switch to DTH. In the near future there will be channels launched specifically for DTH services and will not be available for regular Cable Services, so in the long run it seems that in most countries DTH is taking the lead.
